Alexa Camp from Slant ( IDK who that is but she mad) published a scathing review of "Rain On Me." If it bleeds, it leads.

In her review, she says Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande are "two overzealous vocalists duking it out to see who can outsing the other over the course of the track’s three chart-maximizing minutes."

She also shades Gaga and her past trauma.

Look at this:

"The song is reportedly about the singers’ shared public trauma, and while it’s unclear which of Gaga’s myriad traumas the track references, it ostensibly addresses the PTSD Grande is said to have suffered following the terror attack at her Manchester concert in 2017."

Do you think Gaga and Ari try to "ousting" one another on Rain On Me? I personally don't at ALL. They actually have a pretty stellar contrast despite both being powerhouse vocalists. They complimented each other very well, and trust... I recognize there was real potential for a singing match. But it didn't turn out that way.

neither of them wants to be embarassed in front of their fanbases and look like the girl that "sing not so good compared to_______________." So i think this story of a "singing match" its true......and i t may not sound pleasant (isn't the first time i listen a singing match between good singers)

We should embrace everyone's strengths and stop competing with each other!.

THIS!

I have a feeling that people are now only looking for reasons to diss pop singers and are never satisfied. I think in a lot of cases that doesn't even have anything to do with the music but it's more a reflection of their own insecurities or unhappiness with the current world situation.

This combo is COOL and I like the fact that these two Italian ladies found a friend and a collaborator in each other.

I don't think they try to outsing each other at all. They are both far from full capacity on the singing there. They can do so much more with their voice but tbh how they sing it suits the song ! A smasher ! Iconic gay anthem ! I can see it still being played in 10 years in gay clubs.

Absolutely not; if anything, they're not using their powerhouse vocals at all, none of them. Their voices merge amazingly and it's heaven for ears I hate it how some reviewers have the freedom to discuss things they know nothing about tbh lol
